February is Black History Month and I usually write a traditional article on Cultural Health. However, if your physical health is shot, Cultural Health will not mean what you think it means. I suggest that we need to use this February to focus on physical health and our quality of life. (Video)
One hundred African Americans a day are dieing from Diabetes. 80 million people in America have this disease. Many of my friends and family have or know someone with this illness, How about you and yours.
Let's go to the video tape:
If you want to do something concrete to help improve America's National Cultural Health and its physical health this Black History month, I suggest you call your congressional representative in support of passing the "Health Care" Reform (HCR) that has gotten through both houses.
Yes, it is badly effecting the African American and Latino American community but it is a Western epidemic. As America's Dr. OZ points out it does not matter what party or ethnic group you are part of, diabetes cost us Americans 174 Billion Dollars a year and this cost will double.
I conclude that these numbers are under counts. I mean I can see people everyday in New York that I bet have diabetes and don't know it, and have not been to a doctor in years, because they can not afford it. Come on America, We can do better! We are better then this. Pass HCR Now, it is a start.
Everyone in America should have access to quality sick care and we as individuals better start working on our own health care.

President Goes To GOP Lions' Den -- And Eats The Lions
President Obama went to the House Republican retreat in Baltimore for a one on one knock down drag out thriller in Manila. The champ kicked some serious butt. (Video)
This performance was just unbelievable. Could you imagine George Bush, father or son, daring to stand before house Democrats, they would be torn to shreds. It is remarkable what a cultural humanist, armed with the facts, can do against the forces of anti-humanism. We citizens of good will better acquire and demonstrate the same skills when talking to our Republicans friends. What do you think?

Pres. Obama's First State of the Union Address
In case you missed this 2010 speech, here is your second chance to see and understand this full historic, America will not be second Speech. Lean about the new high speed trains that will create jobs in America and what is planned to keep us first.
Find out what the President is doing to help small business get loans to your community and stop health care dirty tricks.
The take away message for me is, America will not be second. Jobs are the 2010 focus. We will take the money (30 billion) we are forcing the banksters to return to we the people and invest it in commercial banks that will give loans to the community including small business. Small business investment and tax credit. We will pass Health Care Reform (HCR). The Republican Senate tried to block legislation that the President wants and he signed and executive order to get it done anyway. I say the same thinking must be applied to HCR.
He also called out the Republican criminal court that "ruled", 5/4, that inanimate objects ("corperations") had the same rights as human citizens.
What are the actions I will take and recommend that you take. I will move my money to a community bank. If you want money in your community, you better put it in your community in an institution that guarantees to reinvest it back in your community.
We the people beat the Corporations in our election of President Obama by using the internet to raise the money he needed and to communicate his party's message. I will let my senators and congress person know that I want legislation to nullify the Republican criminal Supreme Courts attempt to allow corporations to out spend "we the people" in Presidential elections. I suggest you do the same.
What can you do? a simple one two three punch is what you can do
1. Move your money to a community bank
2. Get Health Care Refom passed
3. Stop the criminal court from killing your internet power.
No Shoes, No Problem? Barefoot Runners Put Far Less Stress on Their Feet
No Shoes, No Problem? Barefoot Runners Put Far Less Stress on Their Feet | 80beats | Discover Magazine: "Perhaps the original design is still the best. In this week’s Nature, Harvard’s Daniel Lieberman and his team reported on the impact force of people who are used to running barefoot versus those of us who wear spongy sneakers to protect the bottoms of our feet. Those who ran barefoot (the way humans evolved to run) moved differently, and with far less stress on their feet than the shoe-wearing masses."

Dr. King, Cultural Poisoning and You
Every Dr, Martin Luther King Day should be a day of self-improvement. It is a National Holiday, take your well deserved time off, but don’t let the day go to waste. It is a day that all Americans should use to improve their Cultural Health.
Did Dr. King exhibit symptoms of Cultural Poisoning? The answer is yes.
If you listen to Dr. King's speeches you will note that he uses the word "Negro" often. This was common among most Americans of the sixties. “Negro” is a DoubleSpeak word (not reality based). It is both a symptom of Cultural Poisoning and the means of transmitting the dis-ease. King suffered from this strain of Cultural Poisoning known as Name AIDS.
Cultural Literacy Minute: Cultural AIDS = Acquired Information Deficiency Syndrome.
How have we done since the 1960's regarding Name AIDS? We have done well in some respects and terrible in others. African Americans and as a result most Americans in general have cured the "Negro" strain of Name AIDS, even though they did not have Cultural Health terminology to describe the dis-ease. The Culturally Healthy result of their actions is that few Americans call anyone a "Negro" in 2010 (African year 12010).
That is, except the Democratic leader of the Senate Harry Reid, and even he knows better now, after all the flack the use of this Culturally Poisoned term brought him.
Our honored ancestor James Brown helped move us from “Negros” to I’m Black and I’m Proud. Malcolm X helped move us to African American, along side Asian American and European American.
On the other hand the pejorative "n" word form of Name AIDS has grown to epidemic proportions among African American youth and is threatening to spread to the larger American population. This back sliding trend of youthful N-word crack must be stopped. We must restore the Cultural Health of our youth. I am sure Dr. King would be standing next to us in this 21st century challenge. Our honorable ancestor Dr. King was also anti-Kamitic. That is, he from his religious training was on occasion heard to refer to our honorable ancestors the Kametans (Egyptians) negatively. This was another symptom of Cultural Poisoning that sometimes results from Cultural Illiteracy. Raising Cultural Literacy regarding Classical African Civilization, Kemit, (ancient Egypt) remains a 21st century challenge.
Now, Dr. King no doubt was a great American leader. Cultural Poisoning (CP) does not keep you or I from functioning. Despite CP, King did more then his share of good for humankind. I am not Dr. King bashing. I point out King’s symptoms to raise a Cultural Health Flag regarding who can suffer from Cultural Poisoning. In my DoubleSpeak book, I assert that 90% of all Americans suffer from some degree of Cultural Poisoning including Dr. King, and you and I.
The term Cultural Poisoning and the concept of Cultural Health did not exist in King’s time. Happily his moral motor was strong enough to drive the non-violence 18-wheeler of Civil Rights onto the main highways in America. If the Cultural Health concept came forward in his time, I am confident that he would have looked into it and incorporated raising Cultural Literacy and the reduction of Cultural Poisoning into his non-violent approach to America’s "race" problem.
King like Gandhi and others before them worked against the odds. Non-violent civil rights, was not as popular then as it is today. But King stayed focused, seeing the light of the future at the end of the tunnel. And so in our time, we understand that Cultural Health is not as popular today as it will be tomorrow. And so all of us, who have started this journey especially on this day, need to be reminded by our honored ancestor, to stay focused on the power of language and keep our eyes on the prize.
Truth crushed to earth will rise again. The concept of Cultural Health is on the move. As we transition from the Civil Rights Movement of the nineteenth century, to the Cultural Health Movement of the Twenty First Century, we must make NuuSpeak phrases like Cultural Poisoning and Cultural Literacy household words in America and around the world.
Every MLK day should be utilized as an opportunity to remind Americans, that the very best of our citizens can suffer from some strains of Cultural Poisoning. This does not make a person a racist. There is a middle ground between humanism and racism; the middle ground is Cultural Poisoning. It is not a disgrace to suffer from Cultural Poisoning; it is disgraceful not to do anything about it.
Cultural Health requires action to gain traction. Now that you know better, you must do better. Your mission, should you decide to accept, is to identify one symptom of Cultural Poisoning that you suffer from and cure it.
I wish you Cultural Health, Wealth and Wisdom.
Happy MLK Day

Mass Race-Who Wins- Dems or Repubs
Is it possible, that Ted Kennedy’s hard core Democratic state of Massachusetts, could elect a Republican? Step to the plate and go on the record before the election. How do you bet?
Image via Wikipedia
Ted Kennedy's life work was focused on getting health care reform passed. Just as this great deed is about to happen, could the Massachusetts people, elect a Republican, that is against everything that the great Kennedy name stands for? Or, is it just Republican Tea Party hype?
Personally, I don't think such an upset is possible. As long as I can remember, Mass has been a working class Democratic state. Working class people need health care, without Insurance Company "preexisting condition" dirty tricks. It's a no brainer, right.
However, as Dr. Martin Luther King's holiday approaches, I also remember, that when Dr. King brought the Civil Rights Battle North in the 1960's, he was shocked. He said, he ran into some of the most hateful "race" crowds he had ever seen in Mass. I remember the pictures, they made to South look like Boy Scouts. Have the Tea Party gang tapped something the main stream media has missed?
I hope not, but now it is time to go on the record. Who will win in Mass on Tuesday Jan 16th in the Special Election?
Democrat Martha Coakley or Republican Scott Brown.
See you back here after the election, to see who was right.

This Was The N-Word Week In Politics
N-Word ALERT: The week started with the Republican type President of the Tea Party caught using the N-Word, then moved to the Census Form and Ended with the Democratic leader of the Senate caught using the N-Word.
In case you were culturally asleep this week, or had something better to do. Here is a three part sample of what the reporting and conversation was like regarding these symptoms of Cultural Poisoning. Also see my cultural commentary following each major story link.
1. Tea Party President caught using the N-Word in public Click Here
If you have your RaceDar on you know who these people are and you are familiar with their code words. They have repeatedly demonstrated symptoms of Cultural Poisoning, often rising to the level of overt racism in the past and they most likely will be caught again. Tea Bagger code words 101, if you hear anything about the "Obama" government, will "enslave" you, or the N-word from these folks or their friends and apologists your RaceDar should go from low and peg at near 100%
2. Census Bureau caught using the N-Word Click Here
This bureau has been historically culturally confused and a consistent spreader of Cultural Poisoning regarding the misuse of the term "race". However, this is a new low, even for them.
New Census Form Choice: Black, African American or "Negro"
In the 21st century to regressively add "Negro" to this form is and outrage and a direct insult to every Culturally Literate African American. I think there must be some Bush undead or Tea Party folks infesting the census bureau. They should be hunted down and fired.
Cultural literacy Minute 1: There is one race the human race and many ethnic groups.
Cultural Literacy Minute 2: "Negro" and all its culturally poisoned variations, as used in the United States, is a term invented by racist for the purpose of perpetrating racism.
3. Democratic Senate Leader caught using the N-Word Click Here
I am a Democrat and I have never said there is no Cultural Poisoning in the Democratic Party. Before the 1960's the Dems were the Party of Cultural Poisoning and overt racism with Dixiecrat's leading the pack. However, that is not the case today, with some exceptions.
This is what I said about it in comment #35
This has been an odd week for a strange and troubling set of words that still plagues the Cultural Health of the Nation. The Cultural Terrorists are hard at work, listen for them, they are easy to spot if you are paying close attention.
The question for you is? How is your Cultural Health? Are you adding to the dis-ease of Cultural Poisoning or helping to put people at ease?

African Tombs of The Pyramid Builders Found
The Pyramids were not built by slaves as I was taught, or by little men from space, they were built by free skilled workman who were paid. See the tombs of the builders of the pyramids, see the builders themselves, video.
Let's Go to the Video tape: CULTURAL POISONING WARNING!
The Black ethnic group known to be the majority population of Classical African Civilization, Kemet (Ancient Egypt) is misrepresented in this video's simulations of African workman in Kemet.
When the Hapi (Greeks called Nile) river flooded, the farmers joined the professional pyramid builders on National public works projects like the building of temple/universities, Obelisks and Pyramids. The concept is not unlike the New England tradition in the United States, where the towns people coming together to build a town church or raise a barn.
Until recently the Cultural Terrorism of religious and Western archaeological mythology was able to run wild in the world unchecked by the facts. Cultural anti-humanists first told me that the pyramids were build by "White" "Jewish" Slaves, and that the Egyptians themselves where White. When the evidence on the ground repudiated these myths, then Western Archaeologists claimed the while the Egyptians were not White, they were not Black either, they were multi-ethnic (Semites or Arabs).
The Arab invaders of Africa that now occupy modern day Egypt lead by Dr YourAss, I mean Dr. Zahi Hawass and the National Geographic disgrace, as Dr. Ben use to call the magazine, try to tell me that Arabs built the pyramids. As an "expert" he knows that there were no significant numbers of non-Africans in Africa until c.1500 B.C.E. (Hyksos invasion) long after the pyramids were built. It is like saying that we who today occupy the United States are the indigenous people of Turtle Island (Americas). This would be obvious nonsense to anyone who knows anything at all about North American history.
CULTURAL TERRORIST ALERT:
While Dr. Hawass is a known Cultural Terrorist, as an agent of his government and the Western archaeological establishment, is in charge our buildings, the remains of our ancestors and their literature. As they dig up the work of the shinny ones we must keep watch with the traditional grain of Cultural Health salt.
There are even groups of Westerners that rather then say that Black people built the African Pyramids, try to convince some folks that people from Outer space built the pyramids. Even some modern movies like Transformers propagate this Cultural Poisoning, clandestinely slipping the dis-ease into our children's bio-computers in a "fun" package.
Professor Vega pointed this out to me at a family function, and sure enough, I asked my grandson why the Transformers (digging into the top of the great African Pyramid) was desecrating the African legacy? He said, "They built them, so they can destroy them...". Naturally he got an on the spot Cultural Literacy lesson. How many children have not has this lesson and now have the Cultural Poisoning built in to their bio-computers unchecked.
You would not run your computer without virus checking software, and you should not run your children without checking for viruses either.
Many people, "religious", "scientific", Hollywood etc, with no evidence, have said many things about the building of the African Pyramids without evidence. Kemetologist (Link "N" Word Alert) have read the words of our ancestors and conveyed the reality to us, now hard evidence on the ground confirms the realities and puts the myths to bed forever more.
Amen
The question is, now that you know, what are you going to do about it. How is the Cultural Health of your children and grandchildren.
